Asp hosting

Asp hosting (Active Server Pages) is a technology that enables server side scripting. What does this mean to you? If you want to have interactive web pages that include: forums, forms, in-site search engines, blogs, newsletters, calendars, web-based email, polls, surveys, hit counters and more, then you need ASP.

The catch to asp.net technology is that your web host must have server technology, which operates seamlessly with ASP data. If you design and create your ASP pages and upload them to Linux site or windows site that doesn't specifically state -ASP web Hosting" then your dynamic pages may not function properly.

Asp.net hosting has one major advantage- It is compatible with all browsers! Your site will function the same exact way, every time a browser opens your site. There's nothing worse than building your site under the extension .htm or .html and discovering that some browsers may not be able to interpret your site. Another major advantage of asp hosting is the simple fact that all .asp extensions are the first scripts to be interpreted by the browser.

Currently ASP hosting is only compatible with Windows platform and can only be developed if you have the appropriate software on your computers. ASP hosting software must be downloaded to your personal computer and your web pages will then be able to be developed.

There is a solution on the horizon! Sun Microsystems has developed a cross platform program called Chili!soft ASP. This program allows other servers and other operating systems to support ASP hosting.

In conclusion, make sure your web hosting company specifically operates as an ASP.net web host platform. Although, more and more web hosting companies are offering ASP hosting Packages simply to remain competitive. It not any more difficult than HTML, but the advantages can change the dynamics of your website. Especially as web surfers demand more interactive sites than ever before.
